Everybody stutters one way or the other

So check out my message to you

As a matter of fact, I don't let nothing hold you back

If the Scatman can do it, so can you

Everybody's saying that the Scatman stutters

But doesn't ever stutter when he sings

But what you don't know, I'm gonna tell you right now

That the stutter and the scat is the same thing to you

I'm the Scatman – Where's the Scatman?

I'm the Scatman

Why should we be pleasing in the politician heathens

Who would try to change the seasons if they could?

The state of the condition insults my intuitions

And it only makes me crazy and a heart like wood

Everybody stutters one way or the other

So check out my message to you

As a matter of fact, I'm letting nothing hold you back

If the Scatman can do it, brother, so can you

I'm the Scatman

I hear y'all ask 'bout the meaning of scat

Well, I'm the professor and all I can tell you is

While you're still sleeping, the saints are still weeping 'cause

Things you called dead haven't yet had the chance to be born

I'm the Scatman
